CRAP!!!! It happened again....two long paragraphs gone just like that! The short of it is I went into the kitchen and forgot to turn it on, which is a big deal for me having to wait an extra 10 minutes for coffee. Ok, I am so happy that I can drive around and do things by my self don't get me wrong. However, I can't remember anything and it is not just cause I'm 45 it is because of the tumor/removal/radiation. I need to start writing stuff down so I don't feel like an idiot. More later, maybe if I remember...LOL

Hello everyone...a bit late for me posting (9:03 am). I got up at 4:50 today, can you believe it? I'm still in shock. Yesterday I went to Rogers and got myself a new baby! (dog) Her name was Sandy but we changed it to Tinker. She is sooooo cute, she looks like a mini sheepdog. But she does have fleas. Spencer put her in the tub with him yesterday to bathe her hoping to get all of the fleas. She is still scratching this morning so I am taking her to "Rover Oaks" at noon for a dip and a cute bow!! If I figure out how to post pics...I'll post one of her. Gotta make the bed now, more later.

Good Morning! Thought I would blog before I have coffee. I did start the coffee maker, fogged the back porch for mosquitos, pottied, and can't wait to get outside cause temp is supposed to be in the 60's NOT in the 90's like it has been all summer. So, maybe my excitement for cooler weather got me up this morning, who knows. Maybe more later. My computer is still doing stuff without me so fingers crossed this post makes it.

Hey...I never found out why my post from yesterday just went away. Boy did you miss a great post. I was so funny, like laugh out loud funny. Oh well. I got up at 3:30 again today, drank a pot of coffee and watched my favorite tv show. The Real Wives of New Jersey. I do watch all of the Housewives shows. Dean doesn't like them so I have to watch them alone. He loves Family Guy (which I can't stand) so we watch our shows seperatly. I have a tip and a confession. First the tip. If you have to get up at night to go to the bathroom...if you sit there long enough...you can pee twice! ok now the confession. I fell asleep in church on Sunday during the prayer. I know that is terrible but when my head bobbed back up, the Pastor was still praying, I just hope no one saw me. (sorry Lord) Well, Dean just caught me sleeping on the couch in the living room and told me to go back to bed. So off I go for a while...till later my friends!

Don't know what just happened but my whole post was just erased!!! Ok..here is the short version. Got up at 3am again, stayed up to make sure I got the boys up for school. I've had a lot of coffee...blah blah blah blah. Gonna clean out the freezer today, lots of stuff that is a mystery. I'm sure there are some of you that can understand that. blah, blah blah blah. I'm gonna re start puter to see what in the heck is going on.

Good Sunday morning to you all...I slept for 5 1/2 hours straight...Holy Crap...(sorry). I got up at 11:30 to go to the bathroom and the next thing I know, I wake up and it is 5am!!! Well, last night was fun, I went to a wedding with Spencer at Stables on the Hill. It was beautiful. The bride was stunning. I must say it was a bit strange that there was no food but just desserts. Snowcones, smoothies, chocolate covered things, fruit, and more chocolate! We were hungry before we got there so as soon as left, we went looking for a place to eat. All places to eat in the huge town of Elkins were closed on Saturday night by 9pm. We went to eat when we got to Fayetteville. Maybe I slept better cause I stayed up past 9pm...what do you guys think? I'll try that tonight if I can stay awake past 9. I usually fall asleep sitting up with my glasses still on. I'll let you all know tomorrow. Love you all. Thanks Melanie for your comments....they keep me going!

HOLY COW!!!!! I slept thru the night without getting up to go to the bathroom! Can't remember that happening for EVER!! So maybe the trazadone works, but of course something good has drawbacks. It can cause weight gain. Well crap, I am already Oprahasized because of the steroids so another 20lbs....what can it hurt except my feelings and my closet. The price for health. The great thing is, my wonderful husband has NEVER said a word as I slowly "pork out" as I have said. he says he doesn't care how big I am...I sure do. You know when you see someone from your past and they look just like they did in High School.....makes me sick.....I'm so embarrassed to be seen right now. Oh well. MY KIDS ARE IN SCHOOL!!!!! More tomorrow.

Hey everyone...it has been a long time. I just got back from the HOG clinic to find out WHY I can't sleep at night. I can take great naps...but at night, I'll get up every 30 minutes, then 45 mins. And still wake up early! The other day I was so tired of waking up so often that I just said "forget it" and got up at 2am and started the coffee. Which is not too bad when I have a bunch of stuff to watch, but it is summer. By 8 or 9am...I'm falling asleep sitting up, bobbing my head. Oh well...life goes on. I called the Dr. again this month, just like last month and say the APN. She is very good and told me to tell the nurse next time..."I need to talk to Karen, not an apt!" Anywho...I got a new prescription for Trazodone for sleeping. It is usually for depression but she says it works great for insomnia. I will let you know in the morning. TOMORROW IS THE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL!!!!! I"LL BE DOING MY HAPPY DANCE BY 7:30AM. LOL That's it folks. I'll try to post more often. Love to all

Good Morning! I have been up for hours but waited to post until I have had some coffee...well alot of coffee. I have had headaches again BUT I do believe their are sinus headaches. I am not gonna call the Doc cause I have an apt. early Sept. and I think I don't wanna know right now. We are going with, they are sinus or tention headaches. I'll keep everyone posted.

Sunday morning and I am getting ready for church. Really could stay home today but I do know that when I don't wanna go, I hear exactly what I need to hear, so I'm going. I'll let everyone know how it goes later. Bye for now! Hey...note to "Katie". You posted a comment about a month ago...Did we go to school together? Do we know each other? Let me know please, and thank you for your comments!

Hey everyone! Is it hot or what????? Oh my....I am not happy with this weather. I have been taking cold showers everyday. Here is what we have been up to. The family went to the lake for a few days, just to get away. One of Dean's clients has a lakehouse and said we can use it. This offer included the boats, moped, EVERYTHING you could need on vacation. We had a blast. HOWEVER...we did come home early because of the heat and because Spencer broke his wrist hotdoggin on the "tube". This kid was ripping it like you would not believe. I drove him into town to see our Doc (which we love) and 7 x-rays later....broken. NO FOOTBALL THIS YEAR!!!! I love to watch him play, I'm hoping I'll be around next year to watch him play. We came back early cause he was the only one really wanting to ride anything. We took our dogs, Mack (labrador) and Zoey (collie) Mack loved it and did a "Superman" dive right when we got there. Zoe, hated it and was mad to even be there so Dean took her home. So glad we were only about 20 from home. Feels like a million miles away. Oh well, back to the grind. Great news today....Zachary got a job at Taco Bell!!!! He starts as soon as his uniform gets in. I am so tired of him saying....I need some money moma. Or so and so needs gas money. NOW I can ask for gas money! Love it. Thanks for reading
